[PATCH] Allow AIDE to mmap files

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



AIDE has a compile time option WITH_MMAP which allows AIDE to
map files during scanning.  RHEL7 has set this option in the
aide rpm they distribute.

Changes made to add a tunable to enable permissions allowing
aide to map files that it needs.  I have set the default to
false as this seems perfered (in my mind).
